Wow! What great coops! Wish I had seen these before I built mine

Mine is a pre-fab coop and tiny run within a dog run. Not the prettiest thing, but it works for five hens who are allowed to free range 2-3 times per week. It now has hardware cloth securing the tarp and a homemade spare wood and hardware cloth frame door overlay after a possum attack killed one of the chickens. It also has two freecycled mounted shelves and a spare wood ladder at the back, secured by zip ties to add more "square footage" and roosting space.

Here is ours, DH finished it a few weeks ago, started in July! They seem to love it.

The coop itself, on the left corner, is 5' x 5', and their protected run is 5' x 16'.

Love it!

Here is our main coop:

Here's ours.....free pallets from work, discarded wood from BF place of employment, shipping box of some type. Purchased nails, staples, roofing, 2 sheets of plywood and a few fencing boards. Painted with old paint we had out in the shed. Not too bad for first timers! Girls seem to be loving their new home!

My husband and I along with a few of our employees built our first coop this past spring....large enough for up to 50 chickens and we have 42 at the moment ( I am always looking for some new varieties) so I still have room for a few more!
